Vibration issue

Hi everyone, 08-H3 Alpha question.

Got a minor issue that has me perplexed. When I reach about 30 mph until about 40 mph, I get a real pronounced vibration in the steering wheel, gas pedal and seat bottom and feels like there is some power loss. After 40 mph, the vibration is less pronounced and power feels better but both are definitely still there. I was thinking U-joint issue maybe?. Any ideas before I throw some coin at my mechanic?

It literally, started overnight..

U joint.. Completely smoked rear. Nothing but rusty metal on metal.

All good now! Time to rotate the sneakers and button up an alignment though, Noticed some scuffing on the inside of the fronts.

Cool. I was going to recommend never slowing down below 40mph. Guess the U-joint is a better fix in the long run.
